Emmanuel Cathedral, Durban

The Emmanuel Cathedral of Durban, South Africa is an outstanding example cathedral construction. The magnificent design of Street Wilson, an architect of South Africa, is very popular among the tourists. Over the years, the highway has gobbled up the outskirt where the Emmanuel Cathedral was originally built. However, the vast-spaced design of the cathedral still keeps the noise out. The magnificent Carrara marble, from which the cross was carved out, was a gift from Empress Eugenie of France. The ethereal ambience created by the serenity of the cathedral creates a heavenly environment fit to connect with the Almighty.
